Abstract
A magnetic component, like an amorphous metal ribbon component, is disposed within an aperture of a layer of circuit board substrate, like FR4 or a flexible substrate. That layer is then laminated between a top and bottom layer to form a circuit substrate with a magnetic component integrally formed therein. Conductive traces are disposed on the top layer and bottom layer. These conductive traces are coupled together about the magnetic component with conductive vias. The top traces, bottom traces and conductive vias form a “winding” about the magnetic component. The resultant assembly is a single, multi-layered circuit substrate with a magnetic circuit element integrally formed therein. The magnetic circuit component is suitable for use as, amongst other things, an inductor, a transformer, or a contactless charging primary or secondary coil.
Description
- 1. Technical Field
- This invention relates generally to electronic assemblies, and more specifically to an inductor formed integrally with a printed circuit board.
- 2. Background Art
- Contactless, or inductive, electrical connections are well known in the field of portable electrical devices. For example, portable, motorized toothbrushes typically contain a rechargeable battery which is charged by an inductive connection. Similarly, portable wireless communication devices, such as two-way RF radios, cellular phones, paging devices, and wireless communicators, sometimes utilize a rechargeable battery that in certain applications is recharged by contactless, induction charging.
- Most all contactless chargers charge batteries by induction. Current, passed through a coil, creates a magnetic flux in accordance with Ampere's law. When a second coil is placed in close proximity to such a current-driven coil, the flux couples to the second coil, thereby “inducing” a current in the second coil. Such an induction circuit is illustrated in
FIG. 1 . - Turning now to
FIG. 1 , an inductively coupledcharging system 100 has a primary side orbase device 112 and a secondary side orportable device 116. A primary controller used as a primary charging device 111 as would be well known to one of ordinary skill in the art, is shown connected to the AC power source and to aprimary coil 113. Theprimary coil 113 is shown inductively coupled tosecondary coil 115 byfield 114. Thesecondary coil 115 is coupled to battery 121 through a secondary charging device which is shown in this example as arectifier circuit 119. The battery 121 in turn is connected to the load shown as RL 123. As would be well known to one of ordinary skill in the art, the energy coupled from theprimary coil 113 is applied through thesecondary coil 115 to charge the battery 121. - The problem with traditional contactless charging schemes is that electronic devices, like cellular telephones, are getting smaller every day. For instance, the RAZR™ V3 phone, manufactured by Motorola, Inc., is less than a quarter of an inch thick. Traditional secondary coils used in contactless charging systems are made by wrapping wire about an iron core. These cores often measure a half inch or more in thickness. Consequently, thin devices like the RAZR™ V3 are not able to accommodate contactless charging systems due to the fact that the physical size of the secondary coil is larger than the form factor of the phone.
- There is thus a need for an improved, smaller secondary coil that may be used in contactless charging systems.

FIG. 7 illustrates another embodiment of an electronic assembly in accordance with the invention. - A preferred embodiment of the invention is now described in detail. Referring to the drawings, like numbers indicate like parts throughout the views. As used in the description herein and throughout the claims, the following terms take the meanings explicitly associated herein, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise: the meaning of “a,” “an,” and “the” includes plural reference, the meaning of “in” includes “in” and “on.”
- This invention is an inductive component that can be manufactured integrally with a circuit substrate like a printed circuit board. A magnetic core material, like an amorphous metal ribbon, is laminated between the layers of an electronic circuit substrate, like a printed wiring board (PWB) or flexible substrate. The finished assembly then has the magnetic core material fixed within in the center of a multi-layered PWB or flexible substrate. The top and bottom layers have conductive traces disposed thereon, wherein the conductive trace patterns each resemble one half of a wire winding that would be on a traditional iron core. The conductive traces on the top and bottom layers are connected about the magnetic core material with conductive vias, which are metallized holes running through the layers of the PWB or flexible substrate. The combined substrate, magnetic core material, traces and connecting vias create a thin, easy to manufacture electronic assembly that may be used as an inductor, transformer, primary coil for contactless charging or secondary coil for contactless charging.
- In other embodiments of the invention, the PWB or flexible substrate may be made larger than the magnetic material such that electronic circuits, traces and components may be populated on the outer surfaces of the substrate. In these embodiments, complete circuit assemblies, including circuitry, contact blocks and integral magnetic components can be manufactured on a single printed circuit board (PCB). (A PCB differs from a PWB in that the printed circuit board includes populated electronic components, while the printed wiring board is the substrate itself.)
- In alternate embodiments, one or more additional layers may be added to the three-layer core assembly. The outer layers of the final assembly are then suitable for population with electronic components and circuitry. When outer layers are used, the traces about the magnetic material may be disposed upon inner layers of the assembly, thereby leaving more space for components on the outer layer. One example of such an assembly might be where the plastic housing of the device has a curved form factor rather than the typical flat housing. In such applications, an air gap results between the PCB and the plastic housing. The surface mount components may then be placed on the outer layers of the substrate within the air gap.
- This invention is ideally suited for use as a secondary coil in inductive charging systems, but other devices can be accommodated as well. For example, the integrated magnetic circuit assembly may be constructed as a transformer where the primary coil, the secondary coil, primary winding and secondary winding are integrally formed within single, multi-layer substrate. As such, the invention facilitates a very thin, low profile transformer. By adding electronic circuitry and components on the outer layers, one may construct complete power supply on a single PCB assembly.

FIG. 2 , illustrated therein is abasic PWB assembly 200 in accordance with the invention. A first, ortop layer 201 of substrate material has a firstmajor surface 208 and a second major surface 209 (opposite the firstmajor surface 208, as indicated with the dotted reference designator). The substrate material may be rigid or flexible, as design applications warrant. One example of a suitable rigid substrate material is FR4, which stands for “Flame Retardant” type-4 material, the type-4 indicating woven glass reinforced epoxy resin. One example of a flexible substrate is Kapton polyamide film. Other selections of substrate material will be obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art who have the benefit of this disclosure. - Conductive
electrical traces 206 are disposed on thefirst layer 201. In the embodiment ofFIG. 2 , thetraces 206 are disposed on the firstmajor surface 208 of thefirst layer 201. A second, orbottom layer 204 of substrate material hasconductive traces 207 disposed on the secondmajor surface 211. - A third, or
center layer 202 has anaperture 205 therein. A piece ofmagnetic material 203, which is comparably shaped with theaperture 205 in thethird layer 202 is disposed within theaperture 205.

The first set oftop traces 706 and a second set oftop traces 726 are electrically disconnected so as to provide the isolation associated with a transformer. Similarly, a first set of bottom traces 707 and a second set of bottom traces 727 are disposed on thebottom layer 704. - The first set of
top traces 706 and the first set of bottom traces 707 are coupled with a first set of conductive vias 714 about one leg of themagnetic component 703. Similarly, the second set oftop traces 726 and the second set of bottom traces 727 are coupled with a second set ofconductive vias 724 about another leg of themagnetic material 703. In so doing, atransformer assembly 700 is created with the magnetic component serving as the magnetic flux conduit. The first set oftop traces 706, first set of bottom traces 707 and first set of conductive vias 714 form one winding of the transformer, and the second set oftop traces 726, second set of bottom traces 727, and second set ofconductive vias 724 form the second winding. - To summarize, the invention includes electronic assembly having a substrate assembly, wherein the substrate assembly has at least three layers of substrate material. Each layer of the substrate assembly has a first and a second major surface. The three layers include a first layer that has conductive traces disposed on the first major surface. The second layer has conductive traces disposed on the second major surface. The third layer has an aperture, and the first major surface of the third layer is attached to the second major surface of the first layer. The second major surface of the third layer is attached to the first major surface of the second layer.
- A magnetic material, like an amorphous metal ribbon component, has a shape that is comparable with the aperture in the third layer. During manufacture, the magnetic material is first disposed within the aperture of the third layer. This magnetic component/third layer assembly is then laminated between the first and second layers. The traces on the first and second layers are then coupled with metallized, conductive vias that run through the multi-layered assembly. The result is a PWB that includes an integral magnetic component suitable for use as an inductor, transformer, or contactless charging primary or secondary coil.
